Bug #8084
Updated by Brett Smith over 8 years ago
In libcloud, the disk attribute of a NodeSize is a number of gigabytes. Because our own scratch attribute is based on this by default, we've decided that it's also a number of gigabytes. See the comments about scratch in, e.g., @doc/ec2.example.cfg@.
Crunch jobs can have a @min_scratch_mb_per_node@ runtime constraint. Node Manager looks at this constraint to determine satisfiability, but it compares this raw number of MB with the NodeSize's number of GB scratch without any units conversation.
Convert units as appropriate when determining satisfiability.
